Chapter 107 Her plan
When Shen Zhuoxi was in the Valley of Divine Doctors, she had a dedicated cook serving her.
The ancestor of the cook in the Valley of Divine Doctors was the royal chef in the palace of the previous dynasty. After the fall of the previous dynasty, he fled to the Valley of Divine Doctors with his children, and settled down to become a cook for the mysterious doctors and witches of the past dynasties.
When Shen Zhuoxi was a child, she loved spending time in the kitchen. Watching delicious dishes come out of the pot was simply a pleasure.
I didn’t expect that after all these years of death, it would still be useful again.
Shen Zhuoxi roughly wrote down the preparation process of the two dishes and handed them to Wu Han.
Wu Han saw her writing it with his own eyes. While looking at it carefully, he exclaimed: "Where did Miss Er get this recipe?"
"It was left behind by my mother." Shen Zhuoxi made a random excuse and said, "My grandfather probably found it somewhere to relieve my mother's boredom. Later, my grandfather and mother were gone, and the book was also dusted."
"After I grew up, I was looking for my mother's belongings, and accidentally found this cookbook. I thought it was very interesting, so I read it several times."
"It's more than just interesting." Wu Han held a thin piece of paper and was as excited as holding gold: "If there is a whole book recording such wonderful dishes, let alone opening a restaurant."
"Even entering the palace and serving as the emperor's chef is enough!"
Really discerning.
Shen Zhuoxi thought silently in his heart and said, "Master Wu is joking. If he could really be an imperial cook, this book would have been found long ago. How could it be left in the attic to gather ashes?"
"Second Miss, this is not a joke." Wu Han said seriously, "According to our agreement, I will ask someone to draw up a written agreement and send it to you when we get back. Second Miss, please enjoy your cooperation."
"You go back with the recipe to try it first." Shen Zhuoxi knew that he couldn't wait to verify it, and said, "If the dish is really delicious and attractive, let's discuss it in the long term."
"Okay, okay." Wu Han folded the paper, put it in his pocket, and said with his hands, "Then I'll leave first."
As soon as Wu Han walked out, Xu Zhisheng knocked on the door: "Miss, is it convenient for me to come in?"
"Come in." Shen Zhuoxi said, knowing his purpose.
As soon as Xu Zhisheng entered the door, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed deeply three times: "I would like to thank the second lady for taking the initiative to save the child from the dire straits. I am willing to work as a cow or a horse for the rest of my life to repay the kindness of saving my life."
"Get up, as long as you change your previous bad habits, you can work as a doctor at Yi'an Hall with peace of mind." Shen Zhuoxi raised his hand and said, "Is your son back safely?"
Xu Zhisheng still knelt and did not get up, and said hurriedly: "I got home early in the morning. I said that the Yamen received the news and confirmed that the child was framed by Mr. Wu. He will be released after his grievances are cleared."
"The child has been in prison for many days and has also been punished. He has lost some weight, but it is not a serious problem. I will check his pulse and he will be fine after a few days of cultivation."
"That's good." Shen Zhuoxi said with a smile: "If he needs anything, he can get it from Yi'an Hall. When he has recovered, he will continue to work as an accountant at Dongshun Restaurant."
"Ah?" Xu Zhisheng was startled, and it took him a while to understand the meaning. He hesitated and said, "Miss, I also know that my son was framed by the Wu family and almost died."
"Go back to the Dongshun Restaurant of the Wu family. What should you do if someone wears your shoes? I heard that the eldest son Wu is the Wu family's sweetheart."
"The Wu family is now run by Young Master Wu. He is quite a decent person." Shen Zhuoxi paused and continued: "When I cooperate with Wu Han, there is always a trustworthy person there for me to keep an eye on."
"Your son is the person I recommended. Wu Han will definitely not dare to target him, let alone let other members of the Wu family bully him."
"You recommended it?" Xu Zhisheng asked in surprise.
Shen Zhuoxi nodded, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said: "Xu An has been working as an accountant at Dongshun Restaurant for several years and has a thorough understanding of things there. I have already told Wu Han about this and he agreed."
"Xu An is in good health and has to find a place to work. It's better to have a familiar and reliable old place than to go to a new shop. What do you think?"
When Xu Zhisheng heard that Shen Zhuoxi and Wu Han were going to cooperate, he also thought of the reason and said repeatedly: "Just now, the villain was narrow-minded. Everything is according to the second lady's orders."
"Well, you go down first to help Li Zhong prepare. The day after tomorrow is the day when Ngee Ann Hall will be renamed Yanxin Hall and reopened. There are many trivial things to do."
Xu Zhisheng kowtowed repeatedly and thanked him before going downstairs.
Dragonfly and Zhuye rarely follow her out and don't know much about the inside story.
After seeing Xu Zhisheng leave, Dragonfly had the courage to ask: "If Miss wants to start a business, she can just ask her to do it. Why do you want to get involved with the Wu family's mess?"
"Forgive me for talking too much. If the Wu family offends the prince, no one will patronize Dongshun Restaurant in the future. Even if you give me the recipe, you may not be able to bring the dead back to life."
"You don't understand." Shen Zhuoxi put down the teacup and walked out: "I'm not married yet, everything is related to the Shen family. Yi'antang is obviously a gift from King Yu, so the Shen family doesn't dare to make any decisions."
"But if I were to start a new business, at least half of the profit would have to be given to the Shen family, and I wouldn't want to."
"The Shen family is the Grand Master's Mansion after all. They won't openly ask you for money." Zhuye took the words and said: "What should I say if it gets spread out? After all, I still want to lose face."
Shen Zhuoxi analyzed: "The Shen family had the support of Han Xiangru's mother's family before, so they didn't lack much, but yesterday they divorced Han Xiangru, and Han Jun was involved in the prince's affairs again."
"The Shen family has lost a source of income. It's hard to predict. We don't have to take precautions in advance."
She didn't go into details. In fact, she had made preparations before. Once Wu Yong fell and Wu Han took over, she could take the opportunity to cooperate with the Wu family and expand the business step by step to make a lot of money.
But she didn't expect Han Xiangru to dig her own grave. Now, she must be on guard against the Grand Master's Mansion. Yu Qinglian hasn't spit out the money she took from Princess Xiaoqing yet!
Shen Zhuoxi went downstairs and finalized the details of the opening with Li Zhong before leaving with the two maids.
It was already lunch time, and she was afraid that she would be late to go back to the Grand Master's Mansion for dinner. She didn't want to go back and face the gloomy atmosphere of the Shen family, so she simply went to Dongshun Restaurant to eat and inquire about the situation.
Dongshun Restaurant and Baihe Tower are across the street, and the location is acceptable.
When Shen Zhuoxi arrived, the door of Dongshun Restaurant was ajar.
"Is this closed?" Dragonfly glanced at it and said strangely: "Just now Mr. Wu said he wanted to try the food, so why not try it with the door closed?"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground inside, followed by a roar: "This building was built with money from members of the clan back then, and it wasn't you, the head of the Wu family, who had the final say."
"Now that Wu Yong's rebellious son has offended His Highness the Crown Prince, can the restaurant still be open?"
Shen Zhuoxi walked up the steps and saw seven or eight people in the room surrounding Wu Han through the crack of the half-open door. They were forcing him with every word:
"Yes, your main line has been a big fish and meat these years, and our side lines can only barely eat the soup. You have made enough money, and we can't let us take the risks."
"We don't have any demands. It's not too much to ask for five times the money spent on building the building back to us."
"Five times is indeed not high. Decades have passed, and the money you used to use it to do anything else will not only fall behind this point, not to mention that your main business has been relying on restaurants for a long time."
"We withdraw our money. Whether Dongshun Restaurant makes a profit or loses money in the future has nothing to do with us. Isn't this better?"
